Default Re: Minimum Amount of Light Watts/Gal Required?

SPS corals have a wide range of light requirements. At the minimal 5 watts per gallon. Most tanks I see successfully keeping SPS have 8-10 watts per gallon. Now this standard isn't perfect b/c tanks below 20g or above 200g are skewed and you can't use this rough measurement.
